I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

...and at this point, it always will be from now on. People's ability to wring 10/10ths out of a sportbike on the road is over. The average owner will need to go to track days to even begin to really enjoy the advances that are being developed with these bikes. At this point, rideability should become more and more important to bike manufacturers. Also, the peaky power delivery of most of the Japanese bikes needs to (imo) change to better match the low-down grunt of a V-twin (RC-51/Ducati/Aprilia). Either that, or I'm just rambling and no one will care. :?

It's all relative. If you're young enough/ stretch enough, you should train yourself to deal with it, or stop riding.
